Joy

From my heart, there rests a wonder,

Alive, sweet joy – louder than thunder,

Blessings poured out on my weary soul –

Abundant love, every doubt falling under…

The beautiful feeling of a heart made whole,

By the sweetest Savior, who will always console,

Due to His kindness, I know the meaning of prayer –

And, because He lives, true love is in control!

This joy, so amazing, - there is nothing to compare,

It fills my heart with such praise, I have to share,

Sometimes my soul simply has to speak up,

The time has come – tis’ the season for hearts to prepare!

When this man named Jesus Christ fills your cup,

There is not a doubt, with Him you shall sup,

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, where He will appear,

In a shout of glory, we’ll rise… so don’t get mixed-up!

Because He is love from God above, I’ll not fear

We’ll all move up to heaven, as long as we’re sincere…

In believing that He has risen and He has all power,

In heaven and on earth, listen up – just hear…

He is the living word, the wonderful – the strong tower,

With Him, we’ll never die and in our darkest hour,

We’ll know what it is to be filled with Him, the light

Who travels the world, saving souls the devil would devour!

Thanks to this love, this Savior, this shining knight,

We can know a hope that is ever so bright –

It is the hope of heaven, where everything is right,

We’ll always praise the Lord - for tis’ our birthright!
